ABOUT THE FILMS:
LAST CHANTS FOR A SLOW DANCE, 1977, Dir. Jon Jost, 90 Mins, USA
A terminal “road-movie,” LAST CHANTS FOR A SLOW DANCE single-mindedly follows the path of its central character, Tom Bates, through an unspecified period of time as he talks to a hitch-hiker and then throws him out of his truck, visits his wife and has a fierce argument with her, talks to a man in a breakfast cafe, picks up a woman in a bar and has a one night stand with her; leaves the woman, and finally, cruising in his truck on a back road, pulls over to help a man with his broken-down car, and, for a few dollars, shoots and kills the man.
FORMAT: DCP
DEADENDZ, 2023, Dir. Jon Jost, 68 Mins, USA
A brutally simple film following an ex-con on his release from prison in Butte, Montana. More a character study of the man than a story, the film methodically follows him through an unspecified period of time from his release to a dubious conclusion.
FORMAT: DCP
